(Performa)52xx,53xx,62xx,63xx - Codyceps - n/a - No PCI bus (no Open 
Firmware)

	These performa machines are basically a Performa 630 (68040) 
motherboard with a PowerPC processor on it. They have neither a PCI bus 
nor OpenFirmware. AFAIK the only things that run on it are Linux NuBusPPC 
and MkLinux. Don't expect to see NetBSD on this machine anytime soon. It 
needs MI NuBus glue, a different booting system and a raster console 
(minimally) before it could really do anything useful. Sorry.
